About

WHERE WE CAME FROM
We didn’t start out to reinvent the recruitment industry but rather refine it and add value by taking a consultative approach to executive search. We started with the aim of focusing entirely on the customer, steering away from cold recruitment strategies so we could concentrate on our passion – connecting real people.
Situated in a rural setting surrounded by beautiful countryside, we wanted to define a strong team culture by providing the best possible working environment for our employees. Despite the close-knit team we’ve created here, our business spans far and wide, both nationally and internationally.
WHO WE ARE
Our people have always been an integral part of the ever-growing Collingwood family and we surround ourselves with experienced, dynamic professionals. Our ethos is present in everything we do, from finding you the perfect candidate to investing in our own staff. We don’t just sell our values, we practice what we preach - putting all who work here at the heart of everything we do.

If you really want to recruit high calibre talent that will fit culturally into your business, it is critical that you invest some real thought into your recruitment process. I see so many hiring processes that are fantastically luring but that really don't tell the true story of the company, what it is actually like to work there etc...

Authenticity is critical if you want to attract someone who will be on your journey for years to come and not get off at the first stop!!

There’s no denying it: hiring the right candidates is tough. You want your business to prosper, and you want the best people behind it.
There’s a lot riding on the hiring choices you make. In fact, 41% of businesses lose more than £16,000 on a single bad hire. Yes, £16,000 — enough to make any employer curse.
Fortunately, hiring doesn’t have to be a stressful process infused with the ‘f’ word. Well, not the ‘f’ word you’re thinking of, anyway. Smarter recruitment strategies go hand in hand with increased business success, and here’s the only 5 ‘f’ words you need to ensure you garner that hiring success.
Frankness
See the word ‘candidates’? The first six letters are the most important. If you want to make long-lasting hires who deliver ROI, you need to be candid throughout the recruitment process.
